48 Hours a Day

Chapter 296 Step by Step

At the end of the last call, the tower lost contact with the aircraft.

The rescue team drove the speedboat to the accident site in the first place, the second accident of the day, and even the captain, who remained silent, rarely revealed his nervousness.

There is a real danger in astronaut training, and the Apollo 1 tragedy remains a permanent pain in NASA until today. In the launch rehearsal test, there was a sudden fire in the command service compartment, where three crew members were sitting inside, like Christmas turkeys in an oven, and the high pressure oxygen-rich environment allowed the fire to spread rapidly, causing all astronauts to die before ground personnel arrived.

The disaster also put the Apollo plan on hold for 20 months.

And in subsequent training, there have been a variety of accidents, but less than a few hours apart like today, two astronaut candidates have been accidentally and for the first time in different projects.

After the communication was cut off, the tower side did not know what was happening on Zhang Heng's side.

Typically, for two-engine aircraft, one-sided engine parking makes it possible for pilots with a certain level of flight experience to drive the aircraft back to the airport, or to use this time to find a suitable landing site nearby. However, when the two-engine is shut down, it is difficult to maintain the taxi for a long time with the weight and design of the fighter aircraft after losing all power.

Therefore, Zhang Heng's best option when this happens is to jump.

However, the failure of the Anthony ejection seat just this morning has cast a shadow over many people's hearts.

On the other hand, the expression of the players was also somewhat uncertain. The meeting chaired by an intellectual-looking middle-aged man not long ago did not identify the murderer of Anthony, but in theory it should still put some psychological pressure on the murderer. No one expected the other to strike a second time so soon.

And chose a goal that everyone didn't feel should be the target.

Zhang Heng is currently the best performer in training. In all aspects, he has basically locked the first one ahead of time. Killing him can indeed give Apollo 11 a place over the sky, but in fact for the latter, it is far from a bargain for him to do it against others.

Apart from the fact that he didn't seem to deal with it personally, and because the result of killing the first and third places was the same, but considering that we were going to fly the spacecraft into space afterwards, everyone would definitely want the more reliable the teammates of his peers, so Zhang Heng faced far less danger than the two or three behind him.

And there's probably only one person with a real motive for him.

“Why, why are you all looking at me? It's like I'm the killer.” The breathless young man sucked his nose.

“You said you had no reason to kill Anthony because he couldn't threaten you, but this time you had a reason.” Zhen smelled.

“What do you mean? ”

“You know how dangerous your position is, the people behind you can't help but die, and after David's death, your grades will most likely be number one. ”

“And then what?” The young man touched his chin.

“You and David are the only people here who have the basis for flying an aircraft, and if we lose David, we need you to fly a spacecraft. ”

“I like that statement, and if I had a choice, I'd be happy to choose you as my moon pal.” The young man grinned.

“Dream on.” Zhen Smells sneered.

“If I were you, I wouldn't be so rude about my future directives, and if you were really dissatisfied with me, you could knock on my door at night, I'd be happy to discuss it in depth one-on-one with you.” The word "deep” was deliberately exacerbated by impotent young people.

The intellectual-looking middle-aged man frowned, "Now that you've got what you want, why don't you tell us how you did it, the morning moon training machine thing, because you know everyone's order of names in advance, and you can do it last night, but how did you do it this time, how did you make the engine fail, and David's flying skills were still on top of you, why didn't he check it out before takeoff, especially between you and David, and what game props did you use next to Mark? ”

“If I don't tell you, what are you gonna do, bite me?” The young man picked out the eyebrows.

“We need a man to fly the spacecraft, yes, but that was after the Apollo 11, and until then we wouldn't put our lives in the mercy of others, and I'm pretty sure you don't have that either.” The intellectual-looking middle-aged man wiped his glasses, "so to keep us safe, either you show us that game item, tell us how to trigger it, or we'll take it ourselves, but maybe we'll take something else from you then. ”

“Tsk, uncle, you are much tougher than you look on the surface, unfortunately... you have the wrong person.” The impotent young man whispered, “I wish I could tell you how to crash that plane, just like I wanted to tell you how I killed that idiot Anthony, but the truth is... this is the last time I'm going to repeat this sentence, it's silly... Listen, I didn't kill them, I don't care what the rest of you think about this, I didn't do it, although in a sense, I personally don't hate what he did. ”

“We're wasting time, he's been lying, and we should control him immediately and search him.” The high school students suggested.

“I agree.” Zhen smelled.

“If one of you touches me first, I swear I will kill him. This is no joke.” The impotent young man's face sank and his eyes flashed with slaughter.

“Why, if you didn't do it, why wouldn't you accept our search?” An intellectual-like middle-aged man asks, "As you said yourself, after David died, you're the best person among us to fly a spacecraft right now, and as long as you prove that these two things have nothing to do with you, you can steadily get a spot to watch the show, you want to do the main line, don't you? ”

“I'm not going to turn my cards over to anyone else before I win.” The impotent young man.

The atmosphere is at an impasse, and the intellectual-like middle-aged are not without concern: this is Cape Canaveral Air Force Base, which, although they have an absolute advantage in numbers, is also difficult to use directly.

And at this point, Jalai, who had never spoken much, suddenly opened his mouth, pointing to a weak path not far from the beach, "Ah... my vision is poor, do you see David on the speedboat? ”
